In July of 2010, Two Birds
Casting produced an evening of shorts called Beer Don't Break Your Heart. It was our coming out party of sorts
to let the community know that we were some crazy kids hoping to cast for their
theatre and be a resource for actors. The event was a huge success despite
having to hide all the beer in bathroom stalls, a stage manager with strep
throat and the performance almost being shut down by the space’s owner. Friends, actors, collaborators, artists of all kind, came to
give their support and we rode this tidal wave of excitement into our first
casting opportunities with folks brave enough to hire us newbies. The community
embraced us and we were off!

These past five years we have had
the opportunity to work with incredible companies, directors, playwrights and
actors. We have had successes, failed attempts, paper cuts and staple injuries,
we have laughed so hard during an audition Erica fell out of her chair. We've
had that creepy time we didn't know if it was an audition or real-life fight at
a Sketchbook "Do-What-You-Want" audition, and the time we were all
moved tears and had to take a break from a session. So many memories.

We have had the sacred opportunity
to see these micro-plays we call auditions. Most of all, we have been inspired
by the artists in this community. Your openness, your creativity, your
willingness to trust, has made these years nothing short of spectacular.

It is bittersweet that we announce
that we are retiring Two Birds Casting as of September 30th, 2015.

Thank you for believing in us and
thank you for allowing us to take part in your art.
